Audeze LCD-2 and AK Jr 64GB DAP for $995
More Audeze temptations, this time it is the LCD-2 (bamboo and lambskin leather) planar-magnetics that are bundled with the Astell & Kern AK Jr 64GB DAP, all together for $995 with free shipping at Adorama.com. Offer ends 5/17/16.
The AK Jr can also serve as a USB DAC, and in addition to the 64GB of on-board storage, it can also take a microSD card (up to 64GB per the specs ~ check forums/reviews to see if higher capacities would work well).
PS: for the purposes of this blog, I am drawing the line between DACs and DAPs on the ability to play music. If something can play music, I am filing it under DAP (digital audio player). Otherwise it goes under the “Amps and DACs” category. I am resisting temptation to further break down that category because I fear I will be lost in a sea of sub-categories 🙂

[DEAD] Jaybirds Freedom Bluetooth Earbuds for $35 [ends Fri 1am ET]
This daily deal expired…
Speaking of Jaybirds, in case you missed it, Logitech opened up its wallet and dangled $50 million in front of Jaybird, and that was enough for the deal to be made. In other words, Logitech buying Jaybird.
This is not Logitech’s first in-ear M&A action, about eight years ago they paid around $34 million to buy Ultimate Ears.
